The renovated Jack Holland Student Success Center (JHSSC) has seen a surge in usage, not in small measure due to the improved facilities and environment of the Center.

Since October 2013, JHSSC advisors have seen over 5000 students, and since the start of the Spring 2014 semester, over 1600 students have come in to meet with tutors for help with their business courses.

We have enhanced Center services by providing writing tutors (addressing a top skill deficit of our students), registration workshops, and greater access to our Peer Leaders who share their strategies for success in our business school.

We plan on expanding support for career planning and global experiences in the coming months.
